7 states join consortium including PA, NJ and Del to buy medical equipment
An increasing number of cases had lead to the scarcity of medical equipment in many states. To solve this issue, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware will be joining a multi-state consortium which is aimed to provide supplies of medical equipment through regional supply chains.
Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf, New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy, and Delaware Gov. John Carney announced on Sunday in a news conference hosted by New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo that they will be joining the cooperation. These three states will also be joined by New York, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut.
All these seven states will jointly work to develop a supply chain of medical equipment, including PPE, ventilators, and testing kits.
The shortage of medical equipment had been a problem for the entire U.S., with states complaining about bidding wars against each other for equipment.
Carney highlighted the problems with purchasing these for small states.
“If we’re going head-to-head with New York, we’re not going to get [the medical equipment],” Carney said. “If we’re along shoulder-to-shoulder with [Gov. Cuomo] and with Gov. Murphy and Gov. Wolf, we’ve got a good chance of getting a better price and of getting the product that we need.”
Wolf also appreciated the benefits of the combined market as this can encourage manufacturing what we need and even manufacturing test kits.
Governors also highlighted that the consortium not only aims to purchase the equipment but also try to manufacture our stuff.

В поликлиниках Светлогорска уменьшилось количество посетителей.
Еще несколько месяцев назад люди не могли записаться на прием к врачу в городе Светлогорске Гомельской области. Причиной тому служили то большие очереди в регистратуру, то отсутствие талонов, то большие очереди к врачам.
Сейчас все стало по-другому. На входе в поликлинику посетителей ожидает обязательная процедура измерения температуры тела бесконтактным тепловизором.
У посетителей нет необходимости обращаться в регистратуру и выписывать талон, получать карточку, ждать под кабинетом. После входа в поликлинику, человек сразу направляется в необходимый кабинет. В штатном режиме работают все специалисты: хирург, стоматолог, отоларинголог, окулист, а также лаборатория, рентген кабинет и т.д.,
Работники поликлиники рекомендуют: просто для профилактики в медицинские учреждения сейчас ходить не нужно. В основном сейчас обслуживаются только острые состояния.
Но, если в данный момент появилась срочная необходимость, то можно пройти без очереди медицинскую комиссию на право управления автомобилем.
